Online organization tools, like Diigo & Evernote can help you facilitate students’ organization and sharing of their research URLS and notes. During this session we will explore some of the capabilities of these tools and brainstorm ideas for how they can be used in your classroom.
Learning Outcomes
After this session, BOOTCAMP 2013 participants will be able to:
identify the benefits and limitations to several online organization tools.
identify ways these tools can be used by students in their classroom.
With your group you will collaborate to answer this question: You are preparing to purchase a new car. You need the car to be able to seat 5 people for family trips but you are also concerned about fuel efficiency and cost. Which car do you think would best fit your family needs and why?
You will have 10 minutes to work individually collecting information utilizing the tool and then 5 minutes to collaborate with each other and determine the answer that you want to share out to the group.
